The power of words is so overlooked. In this episode I remind you of how important it is to be aware of every word you use, as well as the ones you thing. Instead of listening to our minds chatter about things untrue, we need to teach it to play a new message. You can do that by repeating specific things to yourself, listen to positive music that tells you what you need to hear to thrive. I'm not talking about songs that sound upbeat, but the message behind them doesn't support you. Songs about feeling broken hearted and how you want to get even with someone are not good for you to hear, especially if you already struggle with feeling positive. 

You are the best person to tell yourself what you want to hear, because you know yourself and what you want. How do you want to feel everyday? Write that down and read it off an on throughout the day. 

I tell myself things like,

"You are capable of doing this!"

"I believe in you. I always have."

"Let's do this together." 

"You don't need to do it perfectly. Just make progress."

I even write them on my mirror with a wipe off marker. I change it after about 2 months, because it takes about that long for our brains to actually believe it.  

You can become more empowered by your own words. Over time, you mind will have a whole new empowering way of thinking. You are worth the investment. 

Remember to include yourself in the care you give by telling yourself you are everyday!

Always Caring, Sam
